Well? Your thoughts on "I Contain Multitudes"? Now that you've cleared the deck of Rundgren. Maybe you're focused on Utopia already. But Dylan deserves a moment. If nothing else, I love ho9w he's getting all Drake on us but putting out a couple of random singles. While I liked the JFK one more than you, I think this one is just terrific. The way he sings I contain multitudes with a slightly different emphasis every single damn time is a master class in itself. This time the references feels pleasingly random rather than randomly pleasing. And it's got a great old geezer vibe. I rank it right up there w Paul's "I Don't Know" as just spot-on.
I created a 20 song playlist for an old friend who has been admittedly Dylan poor most of her life. Likes a few. Hates a few. Really only knows a few. But she was floored by "I Contain Multitudes." So I picked the 20 songs I want to hear all the time. Would that make them my 20 favorite Dylan songs? But to your question, I made the playlist 21 songs at the last minute, because that is how much I love "I Contain Multitudes." It knocked me out.
AS for "Murder Most Foul," I love it, too. But twice was more than I can handle in a month.
Thx for sharing. Now if only I could edit posts done on my phone late at nite riddled with editing errors. :)
